4 Hill Street

Privately positioned behind a charming 1910 facade, this elegant residence blends enduring period character with thoughtful contemporary updates, creating a refined inner-city sanctuary designed for modern living. Sandstone steps framed by a delightful cottage garden create an inviting street presence, while morning light streams through the north-east facing bay window. From the front of the home, including the master suite, sweeping views extend across the River Derwent and the Hobart CBD. Inside, classic period features including recently restored original Tas oak floorboards, high ceilings, ornate cornices, wide skirting boards and decorative fireplaces celebrate the home's heritage. The ground level offers welcoming living and dining spaces. At the heart of the home, the kitchen was extensively renovated in 2019 and crafted to a high standard, featuring custom cabinetry with integrated strip lighting, striking concrete benchtops and a suite of quality appliances including a Smeg oven, Bosch five-burner cooktop, Qasair rangehood, Fisher & Paykel double DishDrawer dishwasher and Fisher & Paykel fridge-freezer. Accommodation is generously proportioned, with two large upstairs bedrooms both offering double built-in wardrobes. The master suite provides the luxury of a walk-in robe and a beautifully renovated ensuite completed within the past 12 months. Enhancing liveability and practicality are a gas fireplace in the main living, as well as electric central heating providing additional comfort throughout the downstairs living areas. A spacious laundry, renovated last year, enhances practicality, while gas hot water, roof insulation, laminated front windows for privacy and sound reduction, and double glazing at the rear all contribute to comfort and efficiency. Outdoors, the private rear courtyard is a true retreat - an afternoon suntrap with picturesque views to kunanyi / Mount Wellington. An undercover three-person spa completes the space, creating an ideal setting for relaxation or entertaining. Adding exceptional versatility is a detached studio, renovated in 2016 and fully insulated with its own power and polished concrete floors. With convenient access from the driveway, it provides an ideal workshop, creative studio, or work-from-home space. This studio has recently had a quote for conversion into a garage (electric roller door with 2.4m width) at $10,610 (inc GST). Extensively maintained over time, with the roof replaced in 2015, this beautifully presented home offers a rare balance of heritage elegance, modern comfort and flexible living in a blue-chip location, moments from the Hobart CBD and within easy reach of a variety of highly regarded schools and everyday amenities.
